FAQ
FEATHER to JP2 Conversion
What are FEATHER files?
FEATHER is a fast, portable file format for tables of data, created in 2016 by Wes McKinney and Hadley Wickham so that data frames could be passed quickly between Python and R, two languages widely used in data analysis. Today the main version of Feather is simply the Apache Arrow file format, saved to disk, with optional compression that makes files smaller without slowing down reading. A table is stored column by column, which suits analysis of large data sets. When a column holds geometries such as points, lines, or polygons, the file follows the GeoArrow specification and carries their coordinate system. The Arrow project now recommends the .arrow extension for such files, but .feather is still very common.
What are JP2 files?
JP2 or JPEG 2000 is an improved version of JPEG, one of the most popular file formats for storing and transferring images. Compared to the latter, JP2 image files offer higher quality and smaller size images by using a different compression algorithm, which can be either lossy or lossless. JP2s are created using the JPEG2000 Core Coding application, but can also be obtained through conversion from other formats.
